(26 Oct 2020) Hundreds of Romanians took part Monday at a pilgrimage to visit the relics of Saint Dimitrie Bassarov, traditionally regarded by Orthodox believers as the patron and protector of the Romanian capital.

People queued outside the Romania Patriarchal cathedral in Bucharest, all wearing face masks, respecting social distancing and sanitizing their hands, before entering the cathedral or lighting candles.
